Self-explanatory title. Perhaps you just might point some of us to some gems we never got to see or play.
First one off the top of my head was the enhanced mobile phone remake of the first, original Gameboy game
Seiken Densetsu, which was localized as
Final Fantasy Adventure. This remake, unlike Sword of Mana (which I still like as a game regardless), stayed true to the original, while buffing the engine, graphics and music. Unfortunately, it never saw a port off the mobile phones, and faded into obscurity. What were they thinking? I mean, look at these screenshots.
Original
Remake

Nah, but really, I'd love to see For Frogs the Bell Tolls being released in the west.

Dragon Quest 7 remake, even though I own the original and it's super ridiculously long...

Translate it and release it on VC. It doesn't need any of those new fangled 16 bits or polygons

Pretty much any game published on a Nintendo console that is actively supported by the Virtual Console service that did not make an official release Stateside. Mario & Wario, Earthbound 2, Earthbound 0, Tomato Adventure, the first three Starfy games... I want all of that.
And SegaSonic the Hedgehog.

Fire Emblem 6 was never given an official translation.
I doubt it'll happen but a virtual console release would be great.

Not just any Mobile either, but those old Japanese Java phones. If it was on iPhone or Android, peeps could at least do some fancy footwork to play it, but it's impossible =(.
